Zara Ruiz has never been so happy to have failed at something in her life---trying to return to her own time. In Javier de la Ventura's arms, she knows that 1840 is where she belongs...where she's found true love and family. But then the ranch is viciously attacked, and she and Javier's little brother are kidnapped and she finds herself at the mercy of the FOUR WINDS, no longer certain where her journey might end.
Four Winds River of Time California Book 2 eBook Lisa T Bergren
Four Winds is a captivating end to the River of Time: California duology. It kicks off from the very start and doesn't stop until the very last page. Sieges, kidnappings, pirates, shipwrecks, fights, parties, and so much more kept this book moving at a non-stop pace. There was so much going on that huge chunks of the book flew by without me even realizing I had turned a page. The adventure is wonderful, the ending is majestic, and overall this is a book that can pretty much stand on its own two feet. Something I wondered throughout the book was with Zara and Javier talking so much about Zara being able to make the choice on her own whether to go or to stay for sure, why did Zara never think well what if I go back and then regret going back to my own time but I can't get back to 1840? She did a lot of thinking about staying or going as finite options. Maybe it's the over-analyzer in me, but I couldn't help but wonder, what if you go back and realize it's a huge mistake and then you can never go back in time again. How awful would that be? Regardless, it all turns out well in the end, so despite my ponderings, the thoughts don't have too much bearing on what happens in the end. Overall, I could read another River of Time series any day of the week.Product details

Four Winds River of Time California Book 2 eBook Lisa T Bergren Reviews
I love Lisa T. Bergren's books. I have read them all and have re-read some. My favorite, of course, is the River of Time series. This was a little like that series but it is only 2 books. This is the 2nd book and a nice ending to the series.
Lisa Bergren once again takes her readers through a fabulous maze of time travel. She weaves her craft with adventure, love of family, history and faith. It's a perfect read along with Three Wishes, to get lost in the Ventura family's world mixed in with pirate shenanigans. I encourage you to read all of her works! She is one of my favorite authors.
I loved this book, but the ending left me unsatisfied. It ended rather abruptly. She used an epilogue to close some loose ends, but did so very briefly. I think it should have been a trilogy. I can't give examples without giving away too much. There was more story to be told between Zara, Javier, and his family. I loved what was there, but she left me wanting more.
Although the time travel in this book is similar in premise to Lisa Bergren's previous story, the time and setting are entirely different. The heroine, Zara, it's a spunky modern day girl trying to fit in, in the past. She has lots of adventures and the pace is quick as they move up and down the California coast. Zara considers what it means to be loved, and if that love is enough to keep her in the past.
So much adventure on the seas, land, and in their hearts. Really a princess story! Again, Javier was the perfect guy in all the right ways. Admittedly, I'm a sexist in the way that I do believe women and men have certain purposes that the other doesn't. One of my favorite moments was when Zara realized that the men in the 1840's were protective and it felt good to her. Women shouldn't be defenseless, but even if they can defend themselves, knowing they are valued and worth protecting is a treasure. I just loved the messages this story brings to light. The gifts of love, choices, honor, and embracing what you have now.
I'm feeling an incompleteness with the story. Reluctant to spoil with my reasons. Ending felt like a beginning.
Four Winds picks up where Three Wishes left off. It seems that Zara Ruiz is now permanently stuck in 1840 with Javier de la Ventura and his family. Just as she is becoming aware of her love for Javier she is kidnapped by pirates! Javier will stop at nothing to get Zara back and Zara will stop at nothing to become free. Will this experience show Zara and Javier that their love is not meant to be and that Zara must return to her own time?
From the very beginning of the book the reader is taken on a fast-paced adventure! I was transported to 1840 along with Zara and felt her struggles. I love her character. She is strong, young and vibrant. And Javier? Oh my! They are perfect for each other. I love the passion that they both have, not just for each other(although there is plenty of that!), but their passion for life, their passion to preserve their faith and their family and their land. It was fun to be taken to another era where danger and chivalry abounded! I'm definitely part of the River Tribe fandom!
I am a big fan of Lisa. She captures romance so very well. However, this story felt more flat for me. It felt a bit like we were roaming through the angst of the journey rather than the story simply unfolding, bringing emotion with it. The emotion felt like the main plot and I couldn't really invest a lot in it. I love Zara and Javier but I still didn't feel like I really knew them enough. I don't think the heart of this story is as much romance centric as the other river of time series.
I enjoy the family and the characters are down to earth but I didn't feel this story hit the mark. It was clearly researched and sweet, but even pairing it with story 1 falls short of what I hoped to experience. It needs more.
Great bones. Lacking fullness expected.
Four Winds is a captivating end to the River of Time California duology. It kicks off from the very start and doesn't stop until the very last page. Sieges, kidnappings, pirates, shipwrecks, fights, parties, and so much more kept this book moving at a non-stop pace.
